🌱 Ready to Grow? 🌱
A new school year begins this Friday at Gordon County Schools, and we want to hear how our students hope to grow, learn, and succeed!
Families, take a few minutes to talk with your child and ask: “What is something you want to learn, improve, or accomplish this school year?”
Their goal may be academic, personal, creative, or something completely new. Whether they want to become a stronger reader, make new friends, try an activity, build confidence, improve a skill, or reach another meaningful milestone, every goal is worth celebrating.
Share your child’s response through our "Ready to Grow" submission form for a chance to be featured on Gordon County Schools social media: https://forms.gle/y3cy3crrQiPYM2ft7
We cannot wait to celebrate the many ways our students plan to grow this year!

This year’s essay theme, “Celebrating America’s 250th Birthday and the Veterans Who Fought for Our Freedom,” encouraged students to reflect on patriotism, the freedoms Americans enjoy, and the sacrifices made by our nation’s veterans. We are proud of Lydia and Bella for representing Gordon County Schools through their thoughtful writing and respect for our country.
